Timed Up & Go test score in patients with hip fracture is related to the type of walking aid. To determine the relationship between Timed Up & Go (TUG) test scores and type of walking aid used during the test, and to determine the feasibility of using the rollator as a standardized ...
It is unknown how cognitive impairment affects the reliability of Timed "Up & Go" Test (TUG) scores. The aim of the present study was to investigate the expected variability of TUG scores in older subjects dependent in activities of daily living (ADL) and with different levels of cognitive ...
The “timed up and go test” (TUG) is a simple test of the subjects' ability to understand an instruction and perform the task of standing, walking 10ft, turning around, returning 10ft and sitting down. From: Journal of Geriatric Oncology, 2016 ...
Introduction The timed “Up & Go” is a simple measure of physical mobility that can be used either as a screening tool or as descriptive tool. Test set-up and method Use a standard armchair. Place the line three meters from the chair. The score given is the time taken, in seconds, ...
The Timed Up and Go Test (TUG Test) is used to determine a person’s functional mobility and risk of falling. Learn how it’s performed and what constitutes a good score.
Our investigation of the relationships between the measured physical function test scores and falls, activity, and self-perceived health demonstrated significant correlations between the Timed Up and Go Test score and history of falls, frequency of outdoor activity, and habitual exercise. Scores ...
This study evaluated a modified, timed version of the "Get-Up and Go" Test (Mathias et al, 1986) in 60 patients referred to a Geriatric Day Hospital (mean age 79.5 years). The patient is observed and timed while he rises from an arm chair, walks 3 meters, turns, walks back, and ...
The aim of this study was to identify the best parameters associated with previous falls, either the timed up and go (TUG) test combined with sociodemographic factors and a self-rated multifactorial questionnaire (SRMQ) on falls risk or the TUG on its own. Falls risk was determined based on...
ALCT have predominantly focused on the lower body or specific body parts. Consequently, the comprehensive assessment of motor symptoms by these methods may be constrained. To address this, the Timed Up and Go (TUG) test, a widely recognized tool for gait evaluation, has been adapted. The TUG...
